Stylists Are Aliens

Wow, you went away quickly.

I've never met someone associated with this business of "styling" "stylista" etc. etc. who wasn't skeezy. They are a strange breed...sort of like sped-up more "fashiony" versions of real estate agents/gay men (even the women) who won't shut up about meeting Justin Timberlake and love shiny things as much as my cat. They seriously make you want to be crunchy so you don't have to care about anything but forcing your white girl hair into dreads and where to get your next pair of Keen shoes. Yes, the shows about this business might be entertaining, and really, what kind of literally forced from the bowels of hell show won't I watch on Bravo nowadays?

Why, when you are a stylist, do you have to be a fucking sycophant? Like it is NOT EVEN ALLOWED to not like a celebrity, or a designer, or be a little dirty sometimes. Even punk rocker stylists are gross. They dress their clients in studded miniskirts and "rock 'n' roll" tongue sticking out shredded leather bullshit DAVE NAVARRO I'M LOOKING AT YOU.

I guess I'm talking about taste levels here and maybe not the whole industry. I mean, someone dresses Gwyneth Paltrow, right? But she also has great taste herself. She is totally into fashion and knows what looks good on her...so why do celebrities need stylists? They need someone to get them the best looks from the runways that would look the best on them for events and such. But...designers send outfits to celebrities at the drop of a hat when they ask for them. It just seems like an industry built on nothing. It's like if people were obsessed with the guy who buys groceries every Saturday for Lil Wayne. Would that be interesting to people? Maybe. Just maybe. Calllll me BRAVO!!!

p.s. I hate when they talk about "pulling garments". It just bugs me.
